Where to Watch: the 11 Best Tennis Tours and Tickets Worldwide

1.Roland-Garros Stadium Guided Backstage Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 1,052 reviews · 1h 30m · from $24Our pick

Spend 90 minutes behind the scenes at Roland-Garros with a live guide in English, French, or Spanish. Visit the presidential tribune, players’ corridor, media areas, and Philippe-Chatrier Court, while hearing stories about Nadal, Steffi Graf, Borg, and the Four Musketeers. Some areas may close for stadium activities.

“Fantastic tour. Our guide Amir was friendly and knowledgeable. It was a privilege to visit where icon Rafa Nadal won 14 of his grand slams. I enjoyed the exhibition honouring him. It would have been nice to be given a little longer in the museum- to have time to read more of the information. Roland Garros is a classy venue and well worth a visit- as is the park opposite where the Simonne Mathieu court is. I recommend this tour.”

2.Behind the Scenes of the Roland Garros Stadium

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 197 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $25

Step inside Roland Garros for a 90-minute English guided tour with access to player areas, press rooms, the presidential stand, and the route to Court Philippe-Chatrier. Guides such as Lionel share stories about Nadal and other champions. Expect stairs, walking, and possible changes when stadium events limit access.

“Our guide arrived late and seemed very uninterested the whole time. He is from Brazil, and did not even catch his name. He did not try to engage with any of the people taking the tour, and did not point out a lot of interesting things on the property that we seem to notice on our own. The tour was marketed as an hour and 30 minutes and ended up being about an hour and 10 minutes total. Very disappointing, but Roland Garros is quite impressive nonetheless.”
